Italian shipbuilding giant
Fincantieri on Thursday launched its biggest ever cruise liner
for the Chinese market, the Costa Venezia.
Built at Fincantieri's Monfalcone shipyard, Costa Venezia is
the first ship of Costa Asia, Costa Crociere's brand designed
and built for the Chinese market.
"As the name says, the interiors are inspired by the lagoon
city, its streets and its squares, which will bring to life the
passion of Venetian and Italian culture to Chinese cruise
passengers," Fincantieri said.
A jewel of style, at the same time Costa Venezia will mark
the latest step in a long list of innovations from the first
international cruise company to begin serving the local Chinese
market in 2006.
At a length of 323 meters and measuring 135,500 gross tons
with a capacity of more than 5,100 guests, Costa Venezia will be
Costa largest ship operating homeport cruises from China.
